Those are the end of 'morning' smokes, little Tat blacks, HVC half coronas...small guys. Got to go for the nub with the teeny ones....😅

Good deal on the Fabrica5 sampler. If you've never tried them, this isn't a bad way to go:

IMHO the smaller R44 is the gem in the line. Really good. One man's opinion.....😎

I usually keep a box of the R44 around. Great smokes..!!

Happy Birthday, brother..!!

Fresh out of the 'Sticker Pass'....very nice...!!

....can't get that cool shit in WA anymore, either..!! I feel your pain, my friend.... :cool:

Gentlemen (that applies to you guys.....:cool:) we have final lift off. Once USPS scans it, the tracking number is: 9405 5301 0935 5288 1194 08 I'm off to drop this at my local USPS station. They're usually pretty good, I'd expect it to hit tracking by 3P our time, or very close. Expect...

Well done all around...!! I only managed a couple boys, never had the challenge, er, joy of daughters....:) Hang in there...!!!

....see, this is where noobs benefit from the wise knowledge of CP. From experience, we all know Acid's age best on the dash or rear window ledge. Gets that nice sunshine effect. You'll thank me later.... 🤣

I still don't have definite answers but I really appreciate the great discussion..!!

I'll also add that of course, 10yo OpusX and Padron (and others) are clearly worth more than paid for at the time, but nothing is worth more than what someone is actually paying for the goods. Squishy, at best...

Good discussion and I appreciate your input. The "golden rule" of CP is "thall shall not profit from a brother ". All good until the off shore cigar prices went full bozo. So, if I bought the box of CoRo's for $500 ($20 / stick) and the going rate at auction is $2500 ($100 / stick)....and if I...

...very fair, and reasonable. But let me ask you, if you found Grandpa's Shelby AC Cobra in the garage he paid $3800 dollars for, would you sell it to me for the same price...?? Should I sell you the box of CoRo's I paid $500 for, for that price when they're going for $2500 every day on BR...

Thanks, brother..!! This'll fly tomorrow, I'll post numbers and smart ass parting comments at that time..... 🤣

Really appreciate the comments, guys..!! It's in the container, on my bench in my office, waiting for the okee dokee from the smelly one......

....ok, using solder of that size with components of that pitch / pad size is felony PCB abuse.... 🤣 Also, that's an SMT (surface mount tech) PCB, so the solder gets put on as a paste before the assembly goes into an IR oven for reflow. So, there's that.....:rolleyes: Almost like I did that...

....???? No comments, suggestions, concerns, anger, joy....??..... 🤣
